Why Do They Want It? Why Do They Want It Now?

Obviously Sally's desire to be loved and settle down is not entirely linked to her pregnancy- I think a feeling like that would take time to develop but as Sally has suspected she may be pregnant for some time, confirming the fact will have put her in a vulnerable position. When we are vulnerable, support is one of our core needs and I think Sally believes that the support of a loving partner would solve all of her troubles. If Sally was in a relationship with the father of her unborn child, she would not need to consider abortion as an option- or, at least, this is how Sally views a relationship but she could simply be thinking in an idealistic way; nevertheless, Sally wants love more that ever right now because she sees this as a way of gaining security and avoiding the dilemma of whether or not to continue with her pregnancy.
